DHI 2009: Matt Makes History

Matt is the first person in history to three-peat at the Dustin Hansen Invitational Ping Pong Tournament. The championship match was between Matt and Mike again, just like last year. Couldn't be prouder. We get the DHI trophy in our home for another year. We display it proudly on our piano.
Well done, husband! ( and brother who came in 2nd again)

Every year, Dustin and Matt make a video that is shown before the start of the tournament. I linked it here for your enjoyment. They always do a great job!

I can't believe a kid that wore glasses won.

Can anyone stand a chance against Matt? Should I learn to play ping pong and challenge him? I'm sure my underdog qualities would make up for my sheer lack of skill.

I'm so happy that I just spent 15 minutes watching this. Time well worth it! Congrats Matt, who knew you were such a ponger.

That trophy is hot. I can see why you work so hard to display it in your home. Nice job Matt. I can see why you are so proud, Allie.

Ha ha ha, I seriously loved every second of that! hilarious! I wish we would have recorded some of our music videos. They seriously did such a good job of editing it. I say next time all us girls are together we do a Brittany Spears or Salt n' Pepa. I can't believe how many people compete in that, you should be proud of your man.
